In re: Doman v.

UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 03-6922
In Re: RODNEY C. DOMAN,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. (CA-02-144)
Submitted: July 10, 2003 Decided: July 17, 2003
Before WILKINSON, MOTZ, and TRAXLER, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Rodney C. Doman, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Rodney C. Doman has filed a petition for a writ of mandamus,
alleging that the district court has unduly delayed acting on his
petition under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2000), and his motion to stay a
state court proceeding. Doman seeks an order from this court
directing the district court to act. Although we grant leave to
proceed in forma pauperis, we deny as moot Doman’s petition for a
writ of mandamus because the district court has acted on Doman’s §
2254 petition and motion. We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the
materials before the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
